Deuteronomy 17.16
He must not send people to Egypt to get more horses, because God told you, "You'll never go back there again!"
oh what great assurance! what a charge! what great word that shoots adrenaline to our souls! lord, how many times has the world dangled such huge carrots in front of us to go back to our old ways and seek the seeming rewards and benefits of what we have turned our backs to in favour of you? how many times the enemy has tried to lure us back to how we were before we met you, how we had things before giving them up because they weren't part of your much much better plan for us - thank you for this assurance that we are on the right track! we will never go back to egypt just because it seems more fertile or more secure, no! the truth is we are our most fertile and most secure with you! praise you praise you!
